AURORA -- Tues May 18, 2011 tornado warnings and severe thunderstorms swept across the Denver metro area. Several cities dealt with hail, strong winds, and pouring rain. Right before the storm hit, I was able to take some pictures of the haunting storm clouds in Aurora, Colo. They were originally posted in a slideshow on Associated Content. My local news station, CBS 4 Denver, also featured one of my severe weather pictures in a segment on the 6 pm news after I sent them my pictures over twitter. View the video to see what I mean. Thank goodness I didn't bring the kids with me while I snapped the pictures. As soon as I put the camera away, the rain instantly poured down on me, hard and fast. The pictures were well worth getting drenched for a few minutes.

We also strive to one day cuddle with lions and giraffes. Until then, we’ll settle for furry rescue kitties and doggies.

We support many causes via our business ventures, such as homelessness, support for trans youth, equality, helping starving artists, and more! A portion of all proceeds from Intent-sive Nature goes toward helping homeless pets in local shelters.
